"I agree with the lady who spoke at the public hearing who said kids hanging out at boba milk tea shops are throwing their futures away when they should be studying SATs, nonstop," the post reads.

The post was based on a public comment made at a Millbrae city council meeting — more on that later — but has since drawn some mockery from others.

Twitter account @BestOfNextdoor — which delights in the dramatic eccentricities of the social network — immediately picked up on the post and shared a screenshot, commenting, "Oh god, not the boba milk tea!!!!"

Another person admitted to the addictive qualities of boba, writing, "The boba milk tea sinks its evil claws into me too when I walk past it after going to the gym."

This all stems from an unidentified resident who showed up to the local city council meeting and discussed after school programs at the local high school.

During open comments, she attempted to draw a correlation between the need for extracurricular programs and boba milk tea. Starting with the fact that Millbrae schools have not won an award in education since 2003, the woman then launched into a comparison between school programs and the beloved drink.

"What does Millbrae have the most? After school programs. And what else [do] Millbrae schools have the most? Boba milk tea cafes," the resident said during her speech.

"Why? When schools fail to provide students with enrichment programs they're interested in, students will hang out at boba milk tea cafes."
